Gift Taxes Clause Samples
Gift Taxes. Amounts payable to your spouse as beneficiary of your IRA may qualify for estate tax marital deduction. An election under an IRA to have a distribution payable to your beneficiary upon your death will not be treated as a gift as long as you are able to change your beneficiary. The Custodian is required to withhold Federal income tax from any distribution from your ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ to you at the rate of 10% unless you choose not to have tax withheld. The Custodian will not withhold Federal income tax from any distribution from your ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ to you if you do not mention withholding. You may elect out of withholding by advising the Custodian in writing, prior to the distribution, that you do not want tax withheld from the distribution. This election may be made on any other form acceptable to the Custodian. If you do not elect out of tax withholding, you may direct the Custodian to withhold an additional amount of tax in excess of 10%, but not more than 90%.
Gift Taxes. Unpaid gift taxes on gifts made by a decedent before his death are deductible. If a gift is consid- ered as made one-half by the decedent and one-half by his spouse under sec- tion 2513, the entire amount of the gift tax, unpaid at the decedent’s death, at- tributable to a gift in fact made by the decedent is deductible. No portion of the tax attributable to a gift in fact made by the decedent’s spouse is de- ductible except to the extent that the obligation is enforced against the dece- dent’s estate and his estate has no ef- fective right of contribution against his spouse. (See section 2012 and § 20.2012–1 with respect to credit for gift taxes paid upon gifts of property in- cluded in a decedent’s gross estate.)
Gift Taxes. When a landowner intends to give all or part of his or her land to a child or other person during his or her lifetime, the gift will be subject to federal gift taxes if its value exceeds a certain amount. Granting a conservation easement prior to giving land to others may reduce or even eliminate the gift tax by lowering the value of the land.

Gift Taxes. The lifetime exemption for estate and gift taxes is increased to $10,000,000 as of 2011 (and adjusted forward from there for inflation). As a result, taxpayers making gifts, and the estates of decedents dying in 2018 would have a roughly $11,000,000 basic exclusion amount. The estate, gift, and generation- skipping transfer taxes are not repealed; the House bill would have repealed estate and generation- skipping transfer taxes.
